Early plate with a photographic image of Joseph Joachim, a popular violinist.

The method of transferring a photographic image on to transfer paper for application on to a china body was developed by John Slater and examples usually carry a simple Doulton mark and also the predictable “Slater’s Patent” stamp.

A pair of early Slater’s Patent photographic plates (subjects unknown).

Subjects range from famous stage personalities of the time to other period celebrities.

Hello,
I ran across your post of a Doulton plate with the image of Joseph Joachim on it. I was wondering if I could share this on my website dedicated to JJ: http://www.josephjoachim.com
